About Willis

Meet Willis! My name is Willis, and I was born on 10/20/2024 in Texas with my eight siblings! I am one of the 3 boys in the litter. Right now, I'm about 13 weeks old and weigh 8.2lbs. My papers say I'm a Terrier/Pit mix, but me and my siblings are a colorful bunch, so it's anyone's guess! My foster mom says I'm the smartest boy ever and I catch on to what she wants from me very quickly. She thinks I should be pretty easy to train once I'm in my new home. I am a rough-and-tumble puppy but can settle down easily when I need to be. I love to chase toys and fetch but like to play tug instead of giving it up so easily. I can be demanding when I'm ready for my food but haven't really been vocal about anything else. I would eat all the food in the world if my foster humans would let me! I've been busy at my foster home with all my brothers and sisters and my two foster siblings. I do great with the large, adult dogs that live here and have liked every other big dog I've met on walks so far. I haven't met any cats yet, but I think I would like them too, even if they don't appreciate my puppy curiosity. There is a 12-year-old boy that lives here; I get so excited to play with him and love every kid I have met so far! I haven't met any really young children yet, but if you watch my excitement around them, I should be just fine. Due to my age, I haven't mastered walking on a leash yet. Also due to my age, I haven't been potty trained yet, but I do try my hardest to use my pee pads. I was the first one of my siblings to use a pee pad consistently! I've been working to learn to sit and not use my teeth when I shouldn't, and I will continue trying my hardest! I haven't been completely left home alone yet, as I have my brothers and sisters with me. That may take me a little time to get used to, but I don't think crate training will be an issue for me. I take corrections very well and should learn quickly with my new family. I'm having so much fun and learning so much every day, but I can't wait to meet my new family!
